Christy & Rachel: Sneak Peek! | Central Park Elopement | Cop Cot

Christy and Rachel are visiting from North Carolina this weekend and they decided to make their trip extra special by getting married as well! These ladies have been together almost 25 years and I was honored to capture their wedding in Central Park’s Cop Cot shelter. After the ceremony we had a great (though a bit chilly) time wandering through the park for a few more photos.

Congratulations! More photos on the way soon! :-)

Jessica & Adam | Grafton Inn | Vermont Wedding Photographer

I had such a wonderful weekend with Jessica and Adam up at the Grafton Inn. I had been missing Vermont, as I alluded to in my last post, and small town Grafton was the perfect remedy!

This was such a wonderful little Vermont winter wedding, with everything quaint New England from old white churches to beautiful red barns. Basically all my favorite photo backdrops. Jessica was SUCH a gorgeous bride and fun fact, that’s her grandmother’s wedding dress she’s wearing. The very same grandmother helping her get ready. I love everything about this. :-)

Jessica and Adam just wanted photos through the ceremony, and then I was invited to join their guests for a fantastic dinner. A wonderful time had by all! Thank you both SO much for having me. I wish you a lifetime of happiness! Congratulations!

Travel Tuesday: Grafton, VT | Destination Wedding Photographer

Travel Tuesday 4.1.14: Grafton, Vermont
Traveled: March 2014, Solo

While I love to head to exotic destinations around the globe, as I get older I’ve discovered I also really love exploring places close to home. After spending a year living in the beauty of Vermont, I’ve been itching to get back ever since we left for the city. Don’t get me wrong, I love NYC, but sometimes the quiet of Vermont is just what you need. So for this weeks trip, I thought I’d share a view images from this last venture to the green mountain state.

I was up in Grafton to shoot Jessica and Adam’s gorgeous wedding, and before the events got started, I made sure to wander around a bit just for myself and also made time to hit the slopes! It was a wonderful weekend and the perfect few days out in the countryside.

Katarina & Mario | NYC Elopement Photographer | Central Park

Katarina and Mario are from Croatia and plan on returning there this fall for a big wedding. (Oh how much I would LOVE to go, Croatia is near the  top of my many lists of places I need to go.) However, in the meantime, they got legally hitched in New York City and asked if I’d be willing to take a few portraits in Central Park before they headed down to City Hall. Of course!

I had a wonderful morning with these two and their friends wandering through the park. Aren’t they a gorgeous couple? Best wishes to you both!

Meredith & Jordan | Westchester Wedding Photographer | Renaissance Westchester Hotel

Meredith and Jordan were my very last wedding of 2013, and what a wonderful way to end the year! They found me via APW, and I’m so glad they did. I had a wonderful day with these two and just loved Meredith’s vintage dress and veil from Silver Moon in Chicago.

Meredith and Jordan were married at the Renaissance Westchester Hotel just north of NYC, and though it was one of the last days of the year and I was hoping for some lovely snow, it did nothing but POUR down rain the whole day. Crazy weather, what are you going to do? However, we made the best of it, and still got some lovely photos. The hotel had a wonderful little patio that still let us get some natural light and nothing could dampen the joy that was overflowing from this couple!

Thank you both so very much for having me! Best wishes for many years of happiness! :-)

Stephen & Jim | NYC Elopement Photographer | Phillips Club | Central Park

Stephen and Jim were my very last elopement of 2013, and I couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful couple to close out the calendar. These two flew up from Atlanta to be married in a private ceremony by Judie Guild at the Phillips Club adjacent to Lincoln Center. They were the most charming southern gentlemen and a complete joy to work with. We wandered through Central Park and then out to Lincoln Center as Jim is a huge fan of the arts. I’ve never done portraits at Lincoln Center before, but it was a lovely area to shoot.

Stephen and Jim have been together for 39 years, and I couldn’t have been more honored to be a part of their celebration. They are the picture perfect evidence that love is love. Couples like Stephen and Jim are the reason my job is so wonderful. Thank you both so much for having me.

Congratulations and I wish you the very best!

Stephen & Jim: Sneak Peek! | NYC Elopement Photographer | Central Park | Lincoln Center

I am always honored when couples ask me to be a part of their wedding celebration. Today, however, I felt especially honored to be a part of Stephen and Jim’s day.

After being together for nearly 40 years, these two charming gentlemen from Georgia finally tied the knot in a small ceremony officiated by Judie Guild, at the Phillips Club next to Lincoln Center.

More to come, a heartfelt congratulations to you both!

Winter Wonderland! | Vermont Wedding Photographer | Destination Wedding Photographer

I woke up this morning and peeked out the window to discover a beautiful winter wonderland! Being from Minnesota, I’m no stranger to snow, but something about the forests and mountains of Vermont makes the winter snowscapes especially enchanting here.

I try and go for a walk through Hubbard Park, the big hill behind the church steeple in the above photo, as many mornings as weather permits. I’ve never actually brought my camera, but today I figured it was high time I captured some of the winter beauty of this place.

Hope you enjoy!

Happy snow adventures!
